Helloha,
Looking for accomodation in Darwin starting definite from around 5th of May. Anywhere around 150/week is OK.
Or if I rent a furnished house/unit, anyone interested at the TopEnd ?!
Cheers
Smoothie :ok: :ok:

I suggest you try the Bagot Community.
It is a small friendly close knit community of people and just the right place for itinerants (people like you).
It is situated right in the middle of suburbia Darwin and close to everything. It is just down the road from the airport and so very convenient for any pilot.
It is actually on the main road between the city and the Northern suburbs/Casuarina shopping complex. It has its own bus stop with good transport links to all over Darwin.
I believe it even has its own take away food store. There are maybe also a few pay phones on site/on the main road so you can ring up for jobs/be in contact.
For those athletes, the complex even includes tennis/basketball courts with night lighting.
The local women their are also very friendly so you'll never be lonely.
This would be the perfect introduction to the Territory.
Accomodation is fairly cheap, as you can shack up with the locals for maybe a carton or beer otherwise you can just camp out anywhere in the open.
They have built a large fence around the complex to stop you wandering out on the main road and getting run over after you've had a few drinks too many.
It even has a locator beacon named after it, so you'll be reminded of the good old Bagot Community everytime you fly.
I suggest you give the Bagot Community a try.
